Mother’s double tragedy Jonty Dine A woman whose baby was killed in 1998 says it felt like losing him all over again after the physical memories of him were destroyed in a house fire.
Last Tuesday evening, Leanne Perrin was in her Stoke home sitting watching television with her daughter when the she heard something smash. “So, I opened the kitchen door and I had to shut it again because
it was in flames.” Leanne had recently cooked some chips in a fryer and apparently forgotten to turn the oil off. Panic set in and Leanne moved to get her children out of harm’s way.
“My oldest daughter grabbed her son and ran out and I grabbed Ayshja and got her out of the house, the roof was already caving in.” Leanne’s other two sons were luckily at their grandmother’s
house for a sleepover. “They would have been in bed and that’s the room that was right next to the kitchen.” Leanne was shocked at the speed

Her family has taken the annual polar plunge almost every year since the late eighties. However, it was the end of an era for Joy Shackleton as she took her final mid-winter dip with son at Tahunanui Beach on Friday morning. With her fourth son graduating to intermediate next year, she will no longer take part in the tradition. “Since 1988. there has always been a member of my family that has done it, my four sons have all done it, I’ve done several, so it’s a bit sad that this is the last.” She says it doesn’t get any easier as the years have gone by. “It’s the shock more than anything, it’s really not that bad once you’re in.” However, her merino undershirt no doubt helped. “I’ve learnt a few tricks over the years.” Joy says she will certainly miss marking the season with a wintry dip. “It’s really fun and the kids just love it.” Principal Barbara Bowen says the swim has grown to become part of the school’s culture. She says a healthy dose of rain overnight ensured temperatures weren’t too piercing.

Coroners concluded blunt force trauma to be the cause of death. His killer is still yet to be determined. A lock of Jayden’s hair, his handprint and an album of photos were among the

“I have had a hard time sleeping, any noise I hear I think there’s a fire, or think I smell smoke.” As a beneficiary, Leanne has no contents insurance, or savings. Her and her family have been relying on the kindness of the community to survive. “I have six kids so it’s really tough, but I have to keep moving forward for them.”

Nelson City Council is seeking feedback on the proposal to prohibit motor vehicles in Upper Trafalgar Street year-round. Photo: File.
Council seeks input on Trafalgar Street Kate Russell Reporter
kate@nelsonweekly.co.nz
Upper Trafalgar St could become a permanent pedestrian mall by October - if the public get behind the idea. Nelson City Council wants to hear from the community on whether motor vehicles should be banned from the area yearround, after voting to put the proposal out for consultation. Submissions are now open and close at the end of July. If approved, the closure would start on 18 October, but the area would remain open to emergency and service vehicles.
For the past two years, the area between Selwyn Pl and Hardy St has been open to pedestrians only during the summer months. Mayor Rachel Reese says the feedback from the public during those closures has been positive. “I am really looking forward to hearing the results of the consultation on this. Moving to a permanent pedestrian mall in the heart of our city could be a key move for Nelson, so we encourage people to let us know what they think.” The costs of declaring Upper Trafalgar St to be a pedestrian mall, prohibiting motor vehicles 365 days per year, are estimated to be a $200,000 capital as a

This cost is currently unbudgeted, although there are some existing budgets in transport and city development that this cost could be taken out of - but that would mean that other projects in the city centre would be delayed a year. Submissions are now open until 24 July and can be made online at nelson.govt.nz, by post to Upper Trafalgar St, PO Box 645, Nelson 7010 or by dropping off to Civic House.

Nelson Weekly shines at newspaper awards Staff Reporter

The team at the Nelson Weekly was acknowledged for its quality at the New Zealand Community Newspaper Association Awards on Friday night. Editor Charles Anderson was judged best news journalist in the country while the Nelson Weekly newspaper was given a special commendation in the coveted community newspaper of the year award. The annual awards celebrate
the very best of community newspapers and magazines throughout the country. It is run by the New Zealand Community Newspaper Association, an industry body with members from more than 80 independent newspapers and magazines. The winner of the community newspaper of the year went to The Beacon of Whakatane. Nelson Weekly managing director Andrew Board says Charles is a deserving winner. “Since he was appointed editor two years ago, Charles has been driven
to improve the newspaper week-in, week-out and has put together some cracking stories, so it was great to see that recognised by the judges. “And the commendation for newspaper of the year is particularly pleasing as it recognises our whole team. Many of the papers we are up against for that award are either daily papers or those which have been around for a very long time. The Nelson Weekly is locallyowned and operated and employs 13 people out of its Tahunanui office. It also
publishes the Nelson App and Nelson Magazine, as well as a newspaper, magazine and app in Marlborough. CNA president David Mackenzie says the awards recognise the best of the industry. He says community newspapers are thriving up and down the country and that can be put down to the power of print advertising and the hyper-local stories produced each week by highly-connected, local journalists who work for independent publishers.

Local teachers are mostly satisfied with the government’s revised offer for teachers, but there is still a long way to go, says local teacher Stacey Ashley. The largest-ever teacher strike saw both primary and secondary school teachers gather to withdraw their services on June 4. Over 50,000 members across two unions decided to strike after rejecting previous offers made by the Government. The aim of the strike was for the Government to spend more money on improving teaching conditions, more
staff and more release time. The new offer includes a pay increase for all teachers, as well as pay parity between primary teachers and secondary teachers. The offer includes a lump sum of $1500 for union members and a new top salary rate of $90,000. While the pay increase is a big positive, teachers are still concerned about workload and release time. “A lot of what we wanted was to reduce the workload. While it hasn’t come through yet, the increase in the pay will hopefully bring more teachers into the profession and get them to stay,” says NZEI primary lead teacher for Nelson,

Stacey Ashley. Stacey says that teachers hope that will go a long way towards easing workload and giving them more release time. “Teachers are struggling, working all the time. I’ve seen teachers hospitalised because of stress.” Teachers say that while the Government’s offer isn’t exactly what they were asking for, it is a good first step and holds lots of goodwill. “We have faith that the pay increase will be followed up with more resources and more release time to ease the workload.” While there is still a way to go, Stacey says that the government’s latest offer is a good start.

Public needs to do its bit on violence Last week, as part of the Nelson Weekly’s series on violence we spoke to Andrew Munro from the Nelson Hospital’s Emergency Department. This week Sara Hollyman talks to Senior Sergeant Scott Richardson about how police are combating alcohol-fuelled violence on our streets.
Whenever alcohol is involved there is potential for trouble, says Senior Sergeant Scott Richardson. As Nelson’s area prevention manager, he is tasked with knowing exactly where that trouble might blow up. “The biggest issue around street violence that we have is the role that alcohol plays ... alcohol is one of the biggest drivers of our crime, particularly after midnight and in those early hours,” he says. He says, once you get people grouping together who have all been drinking, such as what happens every Friday and Saturday night on Bridge St’s nightclub scene, “that’s when we have real issues”. Bad moods mixed with booze leads to assaults, fights breaking out, angry girlfriends, jealous boyfriends, or simply two strangers who have taken a disliking to each other. Scott says although violence is still a problem and probably always will be, serious crime in the region is tracking down, something he’s “very happy about”. He says the decline can be attributed to
the extra work around visibility and the amount of time spent around making sure pubs are abiding by their liquor licences. “We put a lot of resources into having patrols out on Bridge St when the pubs are getting busy, especially when they’re shutting and people are getting pushed out onto the street.” Police work closely with bouncers, so much so that in the early hours of the morning all bouncers put on high-vis clothing. Scott says, not only does this increase visibility and make people think twice before starting trouble, if a fight does break out Police can also easily identify who’s part of the problem. “We can’t be everywhere at once, but if we’re there, people don’t seem to fight as much, which means people can go out and have a good time and be free from violence. “That should be the norm, not the exception, but every time we get large crowds and there’s alcohol involved there’s always that potential for violence.” He says the way they deal with offenders has changed over his almost three decades on the force. Scott says pre-loading is a huge issue, particularly with Buxton Square so close

Library to reopen: Stoke Library will reopen to the public on Monday 1 July after a one-month closure for maintenance work. The initial assessment for potential moisture-related damage has been successfully resolved; further work will be required for investigation and repairs to the exterior. The Stoke Pop-Up Library service, which has been operating from the Greenmeadows Community Centre during the Stoke Library closure, will close on Thursday 27 June at 5 pm. There will be no library services in Stoke on 28, 29 and 30 June, to allow staff and movers to shift premises.
Senior Sergeant Scott Richardson. to the nightclubs. “That creates issues for us as well because people will walk past us and be perfectly normal, and then it hits them and they’re a blithering idiot getting carried out of the pub.” He says, when it comes to violence on the streets that means making sure the public are doing their bit. “Ultimately – decide what sort of night you want to have. If you’re going to arrive in town drunk at midnight or an hour before closing really, is that what your aim for the night is? To spend the last hour on a sticky dance floor?”
Women for elections: Women are being urged to help improve the gender balance on the Nelson region’s two councils in the coming elections. Currently the gender imbalance is 21 percent women councillors in Tasman and 23 percent in Nelson; while women make up more than 50 percent of the population in both districts. A group of former councillors have arranged for the Minister for Women Julie Ann Genter to speak in Nelson during her visit on Tuesday July 2. Group spokesperson Hilary Mitchell says the minister is uniquely able to address the topic of the benefits and advantages of gender balance and diversity in politics. She will speak at the Greenmeadows Centre at 9.30am.

Nelson’s community heroes recognised at ceremony Staff Reporter Nelson celebrated its strong community spirit at the Eelco Boswijk Civic Awards ceremony last week. The triennial awards recognise outstanding community service with 68 nominations received across the five categories in this year’s awards. Mayor Rachel Reese, who presented the awards, said that the ceremony showcased Nelson’s amazing community spirit, with a high calibre of nominations. “It is so encouraging to see such a wide range of talented people nominated.” The community hero award went to Margaret Goff, who was the driving force behind an outstanding community response during the Pigeon Valley Fire. Within 24 hours of the blaze starting, she had opened the doors to the Nelson Suburbs Football Clubrooms at Saxton Field and it became a busy community hub for dishing out meals, donations, supplies and community support to hundreds of firefighters,

The change maker award, which recognises an individual who is innovative and embraces change in the community, went to Zoe Palmer. Zoe was an advocate in raising concerns about the removal of
the Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service crisis team in 2018. She worked with the community, health sector, and local government, as well as with central government, to challenge the proposed changes, which included presenting a petition of over 2000 signatures to Parliament. The Kaitiakitanga award,
recognising people who are raising awareness of those who are caring for our natural environment, went to the Nelson College for Girls’ group who organised the Schools for Climate Change strike. The protests saw over 2000 people fill the top of Trafalgar Street to push for our government to do more to raise awareness of climate change and
drastically reduce our impact on the planet. The leadership award went to Nelson College deputy principal Ron Kelly, who stands out as being an employee who goes way beyond his job. His job can involve dealing with the ‘not so positive side’ of student behavioural issues. Ron treats these boys with firmness and respect. His sense of community shows by his willingness to be involved in a huge variety of both school and community events – often out of hours and in addition to his paid employment. The smart little city award, which recognised smart thinkers who create new possibility through the clever use of resources, technology and collaboration, went posthumously to James Upton. James started the Nelson English Centre 24 years ago with a vision to “bring people together”. It continues to attract international students to Nelson. James’s vision was not just to teach them the language, but to ensure they enjoyed the whole Nelson experience.

Dog park plan needs public’s input, Wednesday, June 5: Nelson City Council received 1456 responses to their online dog park survey. Council ran the public survey earlier this month to get an idea if Nelsonians would like a dedicated dog park in the region. Council’s group manager community services Roger Ball says the responses will be analysed over the next few weeks and will be used to inform a business case that will propose how the project might be delivered, subject to approval from council. A dog park is included in the 2018-28 Long- Term Plan with investigation and design timed for 2019/20 and construction in 2020/21. ‘I’ve never won anything before’, Wednesday, June 5: After winning Shop n Win several weeks ago George and Jill Sanson have been thinking about how to spend their $5000 shopping spree.

They bought some towels there a while ago and say they were served by a “lovely young girl” and they wanted to thank her.

Change for Matariki celebration Kate Russell
It may not be taking its traditional path up the Railway Reserve, but tonight’s Matariki celebrations at Victory promise to honour its true meaning. This year, lantern goers will have a shorter walk in the other direction to Victory Square due to roadworks near Beatson Rd.
Matariki marks the beginning of the Maori New Year, with the reappearance of the seven Matariki stars. Organiser Ariana Ngaruhe from the Victory Community Centre says they will focus the journey on Waiti - the star that is connected to fresh water and all the creatures that live in rivers, streams and lakes. “We will be following the
stream that runs from the centre to St Vincent St where the drain opens up. That’s our stopping point.” The celebrations kick off at the community centre today at 3.50pm with performances by Victory Primary School students, followed by hot soup in the carpark at 4:30pm. The lantern walk to Victory Square starts at 4.40pm,
where there will be art displays and fire dancers, before returning to the centre at 6pm for a hangi and more performances. The event is waste-free, and attendees need to bring a reusable cup for the soup and their own water bottles. The forecast is looking to be cold and clear, so people are encouraged to rug up warmly.

Trees and power lines don’t mix Trees and vegetation can interfere with our network and even interrupt electricity supply. That’s why it’s important to manage them so that they don’t get too close to power lines.

Edith rolling with new wheels Matt McCrorie Edith Mertens has a new set of wheels. A local physiotherapist who runs a clinic in Tahunanui, Edith was shocked when she received a call, telling her that she had won a near-new ladies’ Classique bike in a raffle to raise money for the Nelson Tasman Hospice. The hospice shop recently received the bike as a donation when the original owner bought it but decided it wasn’t exactly what she wanted. Rather than sell it or take it back, she decided that the hospice shop could use it to raise money.
“The donation was just truly fantastic,” says shop manager Anete Smith. The hospice shop sold tickets from its four stores over the last few weeks, and Anete says being able to give away such an amazing prize made for one of their most successful raffles yet, raising over $1000. Edith is a frequent visitor to the shop and, as a big fan of recycling and reusing, she was over the moon when she found out the bike was second-hand. “I come from the Netherlands, where some people have more than three bikes for different
activities. So I’ve really been missing it.” Edith Mertens says that there’s no better place for owning a good bike, and as a physio she often encourages people to get out there and get moving. “In the Nelson and Tasman area we have such beautiful bike paths, it will be fantastic to take it out and enjoy our beautiful area and what a great cause to raise money for.” She says, being a physio, that she always promotes being active as “motion is lotion and helps our health immensely”. It does good for her dogs Spock and Kirk as well.
Network Tasman takes a proactive approach to keeping trees away from our power lines by surveying all of our lines on a regular basis. We store the information collected in these surveys in a database. Our database records the full history of each surveyed site, including the condition of nearby trees. If we identify trees that are growing too close to power lines, we let property owners know by sending them what is known as a cut and trim notice (CT Notice), as required by The Electricity (Hazard from Trees) Regulations. We issue more than 1500 CT Notices each year. Property owners are responsible for keeping their trees away from power lines. However, the regulations state that each tree is entitled to one free trim – we record whether a tree has had its free trim in our database. When our vegetation team undertakes a survey they also look for trees with high-risk issues that could cause the tree to fall onto the lines, such as trees that are diseased, damaged, or have branches splitting out. All of these factors have the potential to damage the network and cause power outages. To help mitigate this risk, we negotiate a solution with the tree owner (this often involves trimming or felling the tree). Last year, more than 3500 trees posing a risk to power lines were trimmed or felled by network certified arborists. Surveying our lines and notifying tree owners in this way has dramatically reduced the number of power outages attributed to line damage caused by trees. With the cooperation of tree owners, our electricity supply has been more resilient and storm response costs have been lowered. This means everyone pays less for their electricity. If you’re a landowner you may have been contacted by one of our surveyors for permission to access your land and undertake a vegetation survey on your property. Our surveyors are always happy to answer your questions about clearances required, the safe cutting and disposal of trees, and issues with vegetation close to power lines. It’s important for all of us to keep an eye on trees and vegetation and make sure that power lines are out of harm’s way. If you have any questions please contact our vegetation team on 0800 508 098 or email trees@networktasman.co.nz

$5000 for new coastguard vessel Locally Owned and Operated
Staff Reporter Nelson restaurant The Styx raised $5000 for the Coastguard Nelson’s much-needed new vessel. The Styx owner Dana Hanson says last month’s event was a great success and hopes to do it again next year. “About 250 people attended, and the Nelson City Council granted us special permission to use the entire wharf, which contributed to the great atmosphere at the event.” Dana says the event brought the community together to support the efforts of Coastguard Nelson. “Coastguard Nelson is our neighbour on the waterfront, and we watch them volunteer their nights and weekends to ensure everyone’s safety on the sea. We thought, after a busy summer, they need a bit of a thank you from the community and it’s a good chance for us to raise money for a new rescue vessel. Coastguard Nelson is a non-profit charitable organisation that provides a Maritime Search and Rescue service in the wider Tasman Bay area, from the northern tip of Durville Island, to Farewell Spit. “Volunteer-staffed Coastguard Nelson has to raise just under one million dollars by the end of this year to enable it to place an order for the $1.3 million vessel it needs to continue its mission of saving lives at sea. The remainder of the money will be required in 2020. The hope is that staff can then be trained to operate the new vessel and it can be in the water by the end of next year. Coastguard Nelson president Pete Kara says the organisation would like to thank the team at The Styx and those who supported the event. “We have one of the largest geographical areas to cover in New Zealand with potentially some of the most challenging sea conditions to operate in, but our current boat just isn’t what’s needed to cope with the increasing demands for our help,” says Pete. “We’ve been making do for some time and we just can’t do that for too much longer.” Coastguard Nelson brought 88 people home safely in the past year, rescued from a wide range of circumstances, most of them getting into trouble while using craft such as inflatable toys, kayaks, and small vessels. Overall, Coastguard NZ receives just 12.125% of its budget from government and this does not include capital costs for new vessels. Replacement vessels are funded from community grants and fundraising. “We really need the whole community to get in behind our fundraising efforts,” says Pete. Donations can be made to help fund the Nelson Coastguard’s new vessel via www.givealittle. co.nz/org/coastguard-nelson

Alcohol-fuelled violence ‘unacceptable’: Nelson is just like so many towns and cities in both New Zealand and Australia, binge drinking, drug use and violence. Many hospitals in Australia now have armed security included on board the ambulances where there is now a real problem with our medics being assaulted. This is outrageous when all they are doing is trying to save lives. Stop the high consumption of drugs and alcohol and the problem will subside. It's everyone's choice or suffer the full extent of the law if you assault our employees! Michael Watson

Nelson Matters The new law I passed in 2016 requiring all rental properties to be insulated takes effect this week. It is estimated that it will make 180,000 homes nationwide and 3,000 in Nelson and Tasman warmer and drier. There is a cost, but the benefits of healthier families, savings in energy and lower power bills is worth it. New Zealand’s problem with damp, cold homes is due to our national building laws not requiring insulation until 1978. There was a mistaken belief that New Zealand’s climate was so mild that it was not needed. A few Councils required insulation prior to 1978 and some wise builders installed it, but the
legacy was 700,000 older homes without insulation. Retrofitting insulation into these homes is a massive undertaking. It needs a pragmatic approach because for some homes it is impractical. The biggest gains are in ceiling and underfloor insulation. National set out on this task when elected in 2008. I took the view that before the Government told others what to do we needed to get our own house in order. My first priority as Housing Minister was insulating the 30,000 state houses that were not insulated, which we completed in 2015. The second phase was a subsidy
scheme called Warm-Up New Zealand. We invested $440 million in the programme and got over 300,000 homes insulated, including 6,000 in Nelson and Tasman. It was great working locally with people like Councillor Bill Dahlberg who led the local Warmer, Healthier Homes Trust and Paul Brockie from Absolute Energy. Most of the uptake of the subsidy was by home owners. The problem with tenanted properties is that neither the landlord nor the tenant has the right incentives to get the insulation installed. The third phase was my regulations requiring rental homes to be insulated. It included some

pragmatic exemptions. It gave landlords three years to get the insulation installed. There has been a mad rush this month to meet the 1 July 2019 deadline. There is still a job to do in ensuring compliance with the new insulation law. I set up a new Ministry Compliance unit to help enforce the law. I also encourage any tenants to get in touch with my office if their home has not been insulated. There is still a last group of about 100,000 older owner-occupied homes nationally and 2,000 locally that need insulating. Grants of up to 67% of the cost are still available for homeowners that

Audrey Rose has spent her lifetime in service of our returned soldiers. So, on Thursday, the 85-year-old received a certificate of appreciation from the Royal New Zealand Returned and Services Association for her dedicated work. “I feel very honoured,” she says. “It’s a privilege to belong to.” Audrey says she is not sure exactly how long she has been a member of the Nelson RSA Women’s Section. “I don’t know how many years… yonks.” She joined the organization after marrying her husband, who served as an ambulance office in WW2. “He was based in the Middle East and brought back the wounded.” She says the RSA was crucial for her husband’s reintegration. “It was his second home.” Audrey believes it is very important to take care of our returned
servicemen and women. “They sacrificed a lot; I admire all the men that went away.” Her ties to the Nelson RSA date back to its inception. “My uncle George served in the First World War and formed the Nelson RSA when he came home with about four other men.” Audrey has also served as vicepresident and a long-standing committee member. Every year she lays a wreath at the Anzac Day Dawn service on behalf of the Women’s Section of the Nelson RSA. She volunteers at the hospital shop, visits soldiers in retirement homes and has sold poppies for all but one year in her time with the RSA. “This year was the first year I haven’t done them because I was too late, I missed doing it, I’ll get in earlier next year.” She says she has always enjoyed getting out among people and hopes to continue her service. “I will keep coming as long as I’m able.”

Nelson’s ethnic diversity was on full display at the weekend for the first annual Refugees Day. Staged at Nelson Intermediate, refugees from a range of backgrounds came together to celebrate their culture. Audiences were treated to dance
performances and food which showcased the countries they have come from. Organiser Marie Lindaya says they had little idea what to expect at the inaugural event, but she was thrilled with the turnout and is looking forward to it becoming bigger and better next year.

largest fishing port, not all are guaranteed to return. Saturday saw the annual blessing of the fleet on Nelson’s waterfront in hopes that all vessels and crewman come home safely from sea this season. The 19th annual blessing saw hundreds line Wakefield Quay to remember those lost and to farewell
those leaving. Fresh fish and chips were on offer as well as a moving musical performance by Smokefreerockquest winner Estella Romagnoli. Following prayers and a minute of silence, MC Richard Griffin tolled the bell ten times in honour of those lives lost at sea.
After four years of selling out shows, the Nelson Fringe Festival did not happen this year due to the event missing out on some key funding. But organisers are now trying to set the ship straight and the first effort is a fundraising quiz at the Trafalgar Pavilion this Saturday night. Head of the Nelson Fringe Arts Charitable Trust (NFACT), Dan Allan, says he will personally ensure you have a jolly good evening, as host, and says there are some curly categories in store to keep trivial-pursuiters and casual punters alike intrigued and entertained. The Nelson Fringe Festival is Nelson’s edgiest event, drawing performers to our city from all over New Zealand and the world. Tickets are cheap as chips and the theatre is original, experimental and often outrageous. However, after four successful years the fringe didn’t happen this year. “The festival missed out on one of its major grant applications,” says Dan. “But
the trust is determined to set this year aside as a wee bump in the road and come back in 2020 with a full programme of accessible fringe theatre for Nelsonians to enjoy.” The event will feature a silent auction, a non-silent auction, a raffle and a cash bar. There will be a platter of complimentary nibbles on the tables and a wonderful atmosphere of congeniality and competition. Many local businesses have contributed to the fundraising efforts of the quiz, donating products such as a golfing voucher, a lamb, a winery tour, Air BnB nights, Playhouse Cafe vouchers, a cycle kit, organic goodies, wine sets, olive oil and much more. It is recommended punters bring lots of spending money in order to pick up some bargains. A team entry is $100 a table and requires 5-10 people per team, bookings essential to ensure a table. To secure your spot email Dan on dfallan@ gmail.com. The quiz starts at 7pm on Saturday at the Trafalgar Pavilion.

Fellworth House will be taken back to Victorian times this weekend to raise funds for Nelson Tasman Hospice. Award-winning playwright Michelanne Forster and director Giles Burton are performing a gala reading of the play Larnach: Castle of Lies at the 143-year-old historic house this Saturday night. The play, a winner of best NZ radio drama, has been described as a ‘steamy tale of incestuous passion, greed and family tyranny’ set in the Victorian era. William Larnach had an important and ultimately tragic role in New Zealand’s colonial history. The wealthy banker and politician, who built a lavish mock Baronial castle on the Otago peninsula, had married for the third time and seemed
to be at the height of his power and influence when he took his own life in the Wellington Parliament buildings. The play unveils what dark family secrets pushed him over the edge. Alongside a cast of ten actors led by Helen Moulder as Mrs Bates - a former mistress of William Larnach - will be a musical interlude with soprano Allison Cormack and pianist Pauline Boyd. Wine, canapes and optional evening dress will all be part of the hospice fundraiser. Hospice’s Joanna Davis says they are delighted to have such a “unique” event supporting them. “It’s going to be quite a spectacle. Now that we’ve completed our new build, people might not realise that we still need to raise more than $1.2 million a year to cover hospice’s operating cost funding shortfall,” she says. “We’re grateful that groups in

Football: FC Nelson has cemented its spot at the top of the Nelson division one football table after defeating Tahuna 2-0 on Saturday. Brandon Pierie netted two goals for FC to see his side win its sixth game from eight. Suburbs, meanwhile, went down 3-2 to Richmond at Saxton and Nelson College hammered Wakefield 6-0. In MPL action, Nelson Suburbs won its final match against Western 3-0 to finish its season second on the table. Cashmere United wrapped up the title with a round to play. Suburbs’ focus will now shift to the Southern League and round four of the Chatham Cup.

At the end of the season, the Dawnbreakers Fishing Club is looking back at its most successful year so far. Over 240 members is a new record for us, but we are hopeful to increase the numbers again next year. Once more, the Snapper Cup and lots of other events and social happenings will be on the program. A majority of the members, including dozens of juniors, attended the big annual prize giving last Saturday. A great opportunity to catch up with the fishing mates, look back at the last season, have a drink and spin a tale or two. Almost 700 fish of 24 species had been entered in the Club’s competition and, thanks to our most generous sponsors, prizes worth more than $5000 could be handed out to the lucky (and obviously skilled) winners. The overall winners of the 2018/2019 season were Ollie
Meek in the juniors section, Sue Hawkins in the Ladies’ section and – once again- Reid Forrest as the overall champion. Even though out of commission for over a month due to a major mishap “Kayza” and the Fensom family took out the prize for the most successful boat. The Dawnbreakers Fishing Club AGM will take place at the Nelson City Club on July 17th at 7:00pm. All members are invited to come along and have their say regarding club matters. Running a club of this size is no small task and we are always in need of new committee members who are willing to help share the workload. After four years of doing amazing work for the club, Michael Stump will step down as president, a huge Thank You! again from behalf of the committee and all members!

Max makes his mark Locally Owned and Operated
Jonty Dine Reporter
jonty@nelsonweekly.co.nz
After spending a season in Croatia, Nelson basketballer Max Darling is about to embark on the next chapter of his career. The 18-year-old has been named in the Junior Tall Blacks squad which will travel to Greece for the world championships starting later this month. A stint in Europe has only taken the 6’5” former Canterbury Ram’s game to new heights. Max says he was in for quite the culture shock upon arrival in Croatia. “It was different, the first three months were pretty hard being a new county, different language, different food, it took me a while to adjust.” However, as soon as Max took to the court he felt right at home. “Once we got into the swing of playing games it made things a lot easier because basketball is what makes me happy, so I started to relax a bit.” He says he has grown to love the food and the people. “They are a little crazy, but it makes life fun.” Max also had to pick up some Croatian phrases in order to communicate with his coach. “We got a new coach about halfway through the season who didn’t speak any English, so I had to pick
up a bit.” Max’s side finished the national league in fifth, its best-ever placing. After spending the majority of the season’s first half on the bench, Max got the chance to shine later in the year. “I had a rough start, I got about three minutes per game averaging about 2 points, but with the new coach I started getting about 25 and averaging 18.” This was not the only positive impact the new coach had on Max. “I changed positions, went from power to small forward, he thought I’d be better there, and I think I am the right height for a small forward.” His side, Vrijednosnice Osijek, played in a national and international league, meaning Max got to travel around Europe playing the game he loves. “We went to Prague and Budapest, that was a real highlight.” After spending two weeks in Nelson, Max boarded a plane last Wednesday bound for France, where the junior Tall Blacks will play warm-up games before heading to Greece. The rare downtime has been welcomed by Max. “It’s been really nice, catching up with friends and enjoying mum’s cooking.” Following the world champs, Max hopes to declare himself for the 2020 NBA draft as he chases his dream of playing in the world’s premier competition.

Lote’s long journey to glory Locally Owned and Operated
Jonty Dine Reporter
jonty@nelsonweekly.co.nz
Lote Saulekaleka’s journey to becoming a Tasman Trophy champion began almost 3000km away in a small village in Fiji. He was at the top of schoolboy rugby in the island nation earmarked as the next captain of the prestigious Queen Victoria (QV) first XV. But he walked away from that after being offered a scholarship at a school less known for its rugby prowess. Lote had always dreamed of playing in New Zealand and he knew sacrifices had to be made if he was to distinguish himself in the Fijian rugby factory. So, in 2013, as a teenager, he left his highly successful Fijian side to join a struggling Nayland College. There, it wasn’t just transitioning to a new country that was hard – it was transitioning to losing, and badly. “It was a different feel, we didn’t really lose at QV,” Lote says. “We were really dominant and at Nayland, if we conceded 50 points it was a good day.” Queen Victoria would go on to win the Fijian national championship that season, while Nayland did not win a game.
But, looking back on youngster, Lote was that fateful decision, invited to attend Queen the 25-year-old has no Victoria, which has regrets. produced a number of “It taught me a lot about rugby stars including Joeli the game, it’s more than Vidiri, Henry Speight and a game, I wouldn’t have Bill Cavubati. learnt that back in Fiji.” After captaining the U14He says the consistent 17s, the phone call came losses while playing for offering a scholarship to Nayland College was Nayland. character building. “I had the option to play “Having to endure those Lote Saulekaleka reflects on his decision to for the biggest trophy in defeats certainly made me come to Nelson from Fiji as a teenager.

Lote sustained the head injury ended its title drought earlier this “The Waka and Night n’ Day both in pre-season last year, ruling helped me establish myself here him out for the entire sub-union month.

“I had to talk to my family about it and they pulled me out.” Now in a much healthier mindset, Lote dreams of bringing his family to join him in New Zealand. “That’s the ultimate goal, as soon as I get my residency, flying my parents here will be first thing I’ll do.” As well as family, Lote also credits his church for bringing him out of the darkness. “If it wasn’t for them, I wouldn’t be here.” A devout member of Destiny Church, Lote wears his commitment on his finger in the form of an abstinence ring, swearing off drugs, alcohol and pre-marital sex. He hopes to take the lessons from his life to help others. “I am passionate about helping the youth, whether it’s on or off the field.” The diesel mechanic says, while he still has Mako aspirations, he is content to help blood the next generation of rugby players at Marist. “I think I still have a lot to give, we have a young team with plenty of future Mako, I just love turning up and giving back to the club. I guess if it happens, it happens.”

Burnett’s double gives Stoke the win over Waimea Jonty Dine
Stoke flanker Anty Burnett announced his return from injury with a blockbusting burst of tries to lead his side to victory over Tasman Trophy runners-up Waimea Old Boys, on Saturday.
The 2018 sub-union champions continued its strong start its season with a hard fought 40-27 win. Both sides scored some thrilling tries in a topsy-turvy affair at Jubilee Park, with Burnett shining on the side of the scrum. After missing a large chunk of the Tasman Trophy season with a broken hand, Burnett was back to his best with his trademark running game proving a handful for the hosts. “It is good to be back,” he said after the game. “It was tough watching from the sideline, especially having a slow start to the season.” Burnett said the side was beginning to gel as they looked to defend its title. “It’s cool to see the boys have had a momentum shift moving into the second round and are now playing as a team.” The electric Joey Scott created the first try with a mercurial dummy and inside kick which sat up perfectly for Chris Little. However, the response from Waimea was immediate as Campbell Parata produced a superb offload to his skipper Michael Stringer, who strolled over for the host’s opening points. Burnett then showed great speed and agility to elude the last line of defence and put his side back in front. Stoke stretched its advantage further when Declan Smith went over after following up a kick ahead before Burnett

broke the line again and scored his second as Stoke took a substantial lead with thirty gone. After sustained pressure, Waimea finally replied through Erenimo Tau who was simply too strong close to the chalk and powered his way over to close the gap to 14. The points dried up as the defence intensified until James Lash finally Stoke’s Anty Burnett goes in for one of his two tries at snuck through Jubilee Park on Saturday.
